Time has finally come to part out my NB "Build". It was hit by a drunk driver while parked. The insurance totaled it out. It could be repaired and re-registered as a salvage title. I am sorry for the picture dump inline, please don't quote them when you reply.

I'd really like to sell the thing complete for SOLD, including the factory hard top.

I washed it for the insurance photos. It as not as shiny as it appears in the photos. It has clearcoat issues in the usual places.

 

Seems like a really good price for someone willing to put the work into repairing it. GLWS
Depending on the price I may be interested in the MS3.

 

I see a damaged wheel and RLCA, presume the RUCA too. Easy fixes.

What else is damaged in there - RLCA inboard mounts? Chassis damage where wheel pushed in? driveshaft? upright? Only the chassis damage is likely to give me pause.

Obviously I am not your target market, but if that were in the same country, let alone same state, I would be very interested. I also need to declare that I am Founding President of the Preserve All The Grace Green NB8As Society.

TL/DR - I think you might be underselling the repair proposition.

 

Im sure it happens everywhere, but for some reason I feel that Portland gets a lot of drunk drivers smashing into nice cars.
Im also wondering if it can be saved, You need garage space to work on i, and not be on the street? Im on the other side of the Willamette,

 

...And it's gone!

Yeah, it's totally fixable. The guy that bought it wants to build an autox car and seems like a solid dude. As I am selling locally, I didn't want to lean into how easy it could be to fix in the ad and have someone buy it who doesn't have the skills. I wanted someone who knows it's an easy fix to buy it.

I could have fixed it myself, but I have too much going on and two other cars that need attention.

 

No rust on the Chevy, you do have a garage!
Good deal, always feels good to pass something on to someone who is in the know!

 

Good to hear its gone to a good home for repair, and in my official capacity as President of the PATGGNS, I'd award you a Koala Stamp but since you are far far away, you will have to settle for a cat.
